Why does he call it a beach buggy? All of the Californians I knew who owned one (and I'm older than James) called a Dune buggy. But I suppose that James would do some rant about renaming the "symbol of oppression" (which it never was in the U.S.A.) to a weird Science Fiction novel.

They keep coming back for more, though, so either they're quite comfortable off camera, or they really don't mind.

@@JobiWan144 I feel like they're desperate to recapture the feeling of the Mongolia Special (or they were with the first two specials of season 4). The boat one was half decent. The pirate one felt incredibly forced and scripted. And the two most recent ones just feel like an extended version of the little trips they'd go on in the regular episodes. Only problem with the last two was the fact that there wasn't any of the stuff that they'd do in the tent that added variety.

It was driven in the Baja and is a rare body style produced in Phoenix Arizona back in the day. It was pretty worn buy the first and second owners and I have completely restored the vehicle. It's all about preserving History and I'm happy to be a part of it. I wanted one when I was 15 but I have one now and it gets lost ot looks. I love it!

I love the respect that James has to this car. For instance he never took it to the beach because the car doesn't like water, it's from Birmingham.

I used to work in a glass fibre factory in Durrington in Wiltsthire James where we made the bodies for Beach Buggies . I have always liked them for their fun and looks and always hoped that one day i would own one or at least get to have a ride in one but at nearly 70 years old it is just another thing on my bucket list that won't happen. Maybe a lottery win might change that. Thanks for sharing. Mike J.
